Savory Beef in Gravy

This is a great "go to" recipe for shredded beef with tons of uses. 
Great served as is over some pepper jack cheesy mashed potatoes or polenta, 
or shred it for quesadillas, enchiladas, tacos, burritos, etc.



Now don't get me wrong when I say this. The beef is excellent, but I 
gotta tell you. For me, the  Green Chile Sauce stole the show. 

Seriously delicious, 6 ingredients including salt and pepper, and so easy.

Savory Beef in Gravy

2-3 lb Beef Chuck Roast
2 tbsp olive oil, plus
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp coriander
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp fresh cracked black pepper
1 tbsp tomato paste
1 onion, rough chop
4 cloves garlic, rough chop
1 1/2 tsp chipotle puree, chopped chipotle pepper in adobo
2 cups beef broth
1 cup water

Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a dutch oven or large pot.

Cut roast into 2 inch pieces. In a large plastic bag, mix together flour and next 6 ingredients. Add meat and shake to coat. Let sit 5-10 minutes.

Brown meat on both sides, in batches if necessary adding more oil as needed. Remove and set aside. Add onion and garlic to pot, adding more oil if necessary. Saute 2-3 minutes; stir in tomato paste and cook a couple minutes longer. Stir in chipotle puree and beef broth, scraping any bits from bottom. Add back in beef and any juices. Bring to a boil; cover and reduce to simmer. Let simmer 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
